lyrics

RAISE THE SON

I watched you open-eyed
Held you till you held me too
I just couldn’t ask for more

You listened to my every word
Took it in and then I heard
The meaning behind the man

How simple it is to hold the son
With the hands of the father
How simple it is to hold the son
Planted by the mother
How simple it is to hold the son
Guided by each other

We watched the day, we held the night
You grew to laugh and gently rise
My heart was never lighter

We asked the day to give us sight
Let honesty be, we asked the night
To rock our souls to sleep

How simple it is to hold the son
With the hands of the father
How simple it is to hold the son
Planted by the mother
How simple it is to hold the son
Guided by each other
How simple it is

If you wanna raise the son it’s best to do it early dawn
He’ll be more inclined to the climb if the son is already rising, rising yeah

How simple it is to hold the son
With the hands of the father
How simple it is to hold the son
Planted by the mother
How simple it is to hold the son
Guided by each other
How simple it is to raise the son
